The transaction-parse budget is shared across the drives still to be synced, and the sharing is integer division:

transactionParseBatchSize: 200 ~/ (drivesCount - drivesSynced)

Past 200 remaining drives that rounds to zero, and BatchProcessor rejects a zero batch outright:

if (batchSize <= 0) {
  throw ArgumentError('Batch size cannot be 0');
}

So at that scale sync did not get slower — it stopped, with an argument error naming nothing about drives or batching.

The fix

Clamped to at least one. A batch of one is slow; a batch of zero is a crash. The subtraction is guarded too — drivesSynced reaching drivesCount divides by zero, which fails the same way for the same reason.

The policy moves onto SyncRepository as transactionParseBatchSizeFor, so what the number means can be read and tested without standing up a sync.

Scope, honestly

No wallet is known to hold 200+ drives, so this is a floor under a future scale rather than a fix for anyone's sync today. That is exactly why it is one expression on its own, rather than continuing to wait inside #2162 with 28 other sync commits that need rebasing and re-review against the sync work that has landed since.

Verification

flutter analyze clean; 1443 passing / 4 skipped (5 new). The new test fails without the clamp — checked by reverting it.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved synchronization reliability when processing transactions across multiple drives.
    • Prevented synchronization failures caused by invalid or zero-sized transaction batches.
    • Handled cases where all drives have already been synchronized without errors.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for transaction batch sizing across remaining and completed drives.

The transaction-parse budget is shared out across the drives still to be
synced, and the sharing is integer division:

    transactionParseBatchSize: 200 ~/ (drivesCount - drivesSynced)

Past 200 remaining drives that rounds to **zero**, and `BatchProcessor`
rejects a batch size of zero outright - `ArgumentError('Batch size cannot be
0')`. So the sync did not degrade at that scale, it stopped, and it stopped
with an argument error that names nothing about drives or batching.

Clamped to at least one. A batch of one is slow; a batch of zero is a crash.
The subtraction is guarded too: `drivesSynced` reaching `drivesCount` would
divide by zero, which fails the same way for the same reason.

**No wallet is known to hold that many drives**, so this is a floor under a
future scale rather than a fix for anyone's sync today - which is why it is
one expression on its own rather than part of the larger sync work in #2162,
where it has been sitting.

The policy moves onto `SyncRepository` as `transactionParseBatchSizeFor`, so
what the number means can be read and tested without standing up a sync. Its
test fails without the clamp.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

SyncRepository now centralizes transaction parse batch-size calculation, prevents zero-sized batches, and uses the calculation during multi-drive sync. New tests cover normal distribution, clamping, BatchProcessor compatibility, and fully synced drives.

Changes

Transaction parse batch sizing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Batch-size calculation and sync integration
lib/sync/domain/repositories/sync_repository.dart
Adds the shared parse budget and transactionParseBatchSizeFor helper. syncAllDrives uses the helper through _transactionParseBatchSize. Existing formatting changes do not alter behavior.
Batch-size validation
test/sync/domain/sync_transaction_parse_batch_size_test.dart
Tests batch-size distribution, synced-drive exclusion, minimum-size clamping, BatchProcessor compatibility, and the fully synced case.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to b7102

The sync calculation now prevents invalid zero-sized batches, avoiding sync failures at large drive counts. One regression test may not actually execute the guarded batching path because it does not consume the asynchronous stream, so the PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness to correct that test.

consume the async* stream with await expectLater(..., emitsDone), using a
mutable list because batchProcess clears its input; retain the existing clamped
batch-size assertion.

`BatchProcessor.batchProcess` is `async*`, so calling it runs none of its
body - including the `batchSize` guard the test existed to exercise. Asserting
`returnsNormally` on the call therefore asserted nothing: the test passed with
a batch size of zero, which is the single value that guard rejects. Verified
by forcing zero and watching it pass.

Now consumed with `expectLater(..., emitsDone)`, and the input list is mutable
because `batchProcess` clears it. Forcing zero now fails the test.
